Introduction

• We propose the token-Pruned Pose Transformer (PPT) for efficient 2D human pose estimation, which can locate the human body area and prune background tokens with the help of a Human Token Identification module.

• We propose the strategy of "Human area fusion" for multi-view pose estimation. Built upon PPT, the multi-view PPT can efficiently fuse cues from human areas of multiple views.

Running

For monocular 2D pose estimation, please see single-view-PPT.
For multi-view 3D pose estimation, please see multi-view-PPT.
